He has succeeded ic iathng thus hundreds of th: u-ands witbout exagyeration, by the com pulsory law of concentration ” Thie is a grim indictment of Spain io Cuba, especially so coming from a religi-use whose mission of love and he'pfuloess bas thrown her in daily contact with those who have -uff-red and died under Spanish -raelty. There was n0 political end sought to ba attained by the writivg of the letter from which the above extract is quoted. It is not the testivovy of a Jingo or a Cuban male ntent. It is merely an incidental explanation of the situa tion causivg an appeal to Antericans for food and old clothes with which to comfort avd cov-r the Cuban vic- tums of Spaiu’s barbarity. “Lately some of our older pupile,” writes tbe Mother Superior in thir same letter, “discovered a plac- called ‘Los Fosos,’ which means ‘the ditches,’ because it is a low and marsby placa There sre over a thousand women, with children of both sexes, are living abandoned, unknowe and starviog. Many are perfectly naked All are heaped up p-llmell They have been there nearly two months. Of their num- ber 15 to 20 or 30 die daily. At night there is no light, and in the morning the corpses and living are found together Do you understand? Can you imagine worse?” It will be difficult tor the wily Senor Dea Lome at Washington to explain away this testimony of the Mother Superior of the Conveat ot the Sacred Heart in Havana. It will be difficult for Americans to read that testimony and then rest conteut with the continuance of Spanirh rulein Cuba. The Cubaus are a hberty loving people, like ourselve~.

Nervous People often wonder why their nerves ar. so weak; why they get tired so easily; why they start at every slight tut sudden sound; why they do not sleep naturally; why they have frequent headaches, indigestion and nervous ° Dyspepsia The explanation is simple. It is found in that impure blood which is contin- ually feeding the nerves upon refuse instead of the elements of strength and vigor. In such condition opiate and nerve compounds simply deaden and donot cure. Hood’s Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure, rich, red blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digestion, is the true remedy for all nervous troubles.
